Colorado farm revives water-saving ancient grains
Original: Water-saving ancient grains are turning dust to crust https:// coloradosun.com/2026/10/18/col orado-farm-cortez-pueblo-s
A Cortez, Colorado farm and seed company is growing ancient grains that need far less water than conventional crops, turning dry land into productive ground and milling the grains into baked goods. The approach is drawing attention as drought-stricken farmers look for crops suited to a drier climate in the American Southwest.
Why now: Ongoing drought in the Colorado region has renewed interest in drought-tolerant traditional crops.
